Washington, DC’s own lyrical genius Young E Class chronicles his journey of survival with a profoundly touching performance themed “Some How”

Young E Class’ artistry is defined by raw intensity, street wisdom, and unrelenting hunger. Being incarcerated so early in his life was not something he had envisioned for himself, but he found a way to use this life-altering experience as a trampoline to reach new greater heights both as an artist and a person. His music is much more like a battle cry—fueled by his experiences growing up in DC, being incarcerated at the ripe age of 15, his struggles with the system, and his unbreakable will to succeed no matter what. Lyrically, Young E Class is a storyteller in the truest sense, blending autobiographical grit with motivational fire. He raps about pain, triumph, and survival, often over hard-hitting, cinematic beats that make every track feel like an anthem. His delivery is relentless—whether he’s spitting rapid-fire bars or letting emotion drip through slower, introspective tracks, his passion is undeniable.

What sets this profound performance, “Some How” apart from other hip-hop records is Young E’s effortless knack for channeling both vulnerability and introspection. This is  a voice for the underdogs, a symbol of perseverance, and an inspiring masterpiece that is meant to uplift the listener and remind them that no obstacle is insurmountable.

From the moment the beat kicks in, there’s a haunting elegance to it—soulful keys floating over a knocking bassline, setting the stage for Young E to pour his soul into every bar. He raps with a mix of urgency and poise, balancing raw aggression with a deep, almost meditative introspection.

His delivery is relentless yet heartfelt, like a man who’s been through fire and lived to tell the tale. The lyrics are deep, painting a vivid picture of his pain, struggles, and ultimate triumph. You can hear the hunger in his voice, the pain behind his words, and the pride of a man who refuses to be broken.

There is a cinematic quality to this track—it’s like flipping through pages of Young E’s diary, each verse a new scene filled with war wounds, hard lessons, and an unwavering belief in his destiny.

The accompanying music video is just as heartfelt and intimate as the music itself, perfectly matching the tone and mood the song conveys.

By the time the track fades out, it leaves you with an aftertaste of reflection—the sound of a man who remains uncowed in the face of adversity, paving his own path to success with every new release.
